The mapping of qemu to kernel branch name for the stable
kernel had a small leak from the devel kernel. Nothing
broke since qemux86 prefers the 2.6.37 kernel and this was
hidden.
This fixes the mapping for anyone who does want a 2.6.34 based
qemux86 kernel.

The existing 2.6.34 kernel tree uses _ where poky typically
uses -. This is a historical artifact, since working with
gnu Make and shells means avoiding - is wise. The opposite
is true in Yocto.
To avoid using the _ reserved character wherever possible
we can simply remove it from the branch names in the
new 2.6.37 kernel, but to keep the content stable in the
0.9 2.6.34 kernel, we map _ to - for the purposes of
packaging.
To further faciliate this switch, the branch names no
longer need to be shortened in the KMACHINE mappings, but
can be fully specified and the tools/processing adapt as
required. This gives us the flexibility to map multiple
boards to a single branch for building.

During the last phase of the recipe factoring, the board compatibility
lists ended up in the wrong place, which meant we had an incomplete
list of boards, and the same set of boards for both kernels (stable
and devel).
To fix this, I've yanked the compatibility to the recipes themselves and
updated the emenlow to have a -stable bbappend.

In order to extend and create more kernel recipes based on the
supported yocto kernel common routines need to be placed in
re-usable blocks.
To accomplish this meta/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-yocto_git.bb
is broken into three parts:
- meta/classes/kernel-yocto.bbclass: contains common routines
for checking out and configuring a yocto kernel git repository.
This should be inherited by recipes that need this functionality.
- meta/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-yocto.inc: Contains the machine
mappings, compatibility, build directives and common task
definitions for a yocto kernel based recipe. This inherits
kernel-yocto, and is the typical point of entry for other recipes.
- meta/recipes-kernel/linux/linuux-tools.inc: tasks and function definitions
for kernel recipes that want to build/export perf
It also updates the linux-yocto recipe to default to 2.6.37.
As part of the update to 2.6.37 the branch naming and conventions
have been modified to show inheritance, and be more generic.
For example:
master
meta
yocto/base
yocto/standard/arm_versatile_926ejs
yocto/standard/base
yocto/standard/beagleboard
yocto/standard/common_pc/atom-pc
yocto/standard/common_pc/base
yocto/standard/common_pc_64
yocto/standard/fsl-mpc8315e-rdb
yocto/standard/intel_atom_z530
yocto/standard/intel_core_qm57_pch
yocto/standard/mti_malta32_be
yocto/standard/preempt_rt/base
yocto/standard/preempt_rt/common_pc
yocto/standard/preempt_rt/common_pc_64
yocto/standard/preempt_rt/intel_atom_z530
yocto/standard/preempt_rt/intel_core_qm57_pch
yocto/standard/qemu_ppc32
yocto/standard/routerstationpro
In this structure:
master: tracks the mainline kernel
meta: meta information for the BSPs and kernel features
yocto/base: baseline kernel branch
yocto/standard/base: 'standard' kernel, contains features
and configs for all BSPs
yocto/standard/<machine>: represents a BSP with specific
features or configurations
The tools, tree and libc-headers have all been updated to
deal with this new structure. Also in addition to dealing with
the new structure, they continue to work with the existing
tree and will adapt at runtime to the differences.
The linux-yocto-stable_git.bb recipe continues to build the
2.6.34 based tree,and linux-yocto_git.bb builds 2.6.37. As
boards are enabled for the new kernel they will move from
-stable to the development kernel. As of now, only the
emulated targets have moved to 2.6.37-rcX

The existing preferred yocto kernel wasn't named appropriately
and needs to be updated.
In keeping the changes small and isolated, this commit simply
renames the recipe and some internal variables. Future commits
will refactor the code into more usable blocks.
Now that linuy-wrs has been renamed linux-yocto, we need
to rename and update an board configurations and append
files.
Now that linux-wrs has been renamed linux-yocto, we need to

When creating a new BSP there isn't always an upstream branch
to validate SRCREVs against. Therefore, creating a new BSP
required extra manipulations of the git repository, even though
the branch for the build would be dynamically created.
To fix this, provide a fallback to the 'standard' branch if
WRMACHINE is not assigned a specific value for the given MACHINE.
The fallback saved in KBRANCH, and represents the branch that
we should build, even if no fallback is required. Some substeps
of the recipe have been updated to use KBRANCH rather than
enforcing MACHINE-KERNELTYPE.

Reinstate the ability to specify optional/additional kernel features
when updating the tree.
This is done via the variable KERNEL_FEATURES which specifies
a list of features to be appended to the current branch and
config. These features are part of the wrs_meta branch in the
kernel repository and hence are self contained within the
kernel tree waiting to be activated. This saves multiple
branches simply to allow a machine to have many profiles.
The kernel patching/configuration phases will locate these
features and add them to the meta_series, which in turn
modifies the tree.

If for some unknown reason, the kernel git repository hasn't been properly
updated and is *older* than the revisions listed in default-revisions the
branch sanity checking kicks in and tries to force branches to the right
revs. The problem is, the revisions it is looking for don't exist in the
tree. As a result, error messages are thrown about invalid commit IDs.
These aren't helpful, and are simply confusing for the user.
Instead we can test for the commit ID, and if it isn't valid, indicate
that the commit ID isn't valid and that the tree is potentially out
of sync.
This situation is not common, but it is an easy test and the extra
sanity checking is useful.

It is possible for the git repository to have commits on branches
that are ahead of the SRCREVs for those branches. Since the
kern tools will simply checkout and build, we can end up building
a different kernel than what is expected.
It is up to the recipe to ensure that the branches are at the
correct commits. To do this, we simply check the current machine
branch against the SRCREV and if they don't match we move the
existing branch and do a checkout at the desired commit.
Note: This probably needs to be disabled with AUTOREV.

Having one monolithic packages directory makes it hard to find things

logical sections roughly based on function, recipes.txt gives more
information about the classifications used.
The opportunity is also used to switch from "packages" to "recipes"
as used in OpenEmbedded as the term "packages" can be confusing to
people and has many different meanings.
Not all recipes have been classified yet, this is just a first pass
at separating things out. Some packages are moved to meta-extras as
they're no longer actively used or maintained.
